I was not in the position (at the time) to choose the Tropicana, but I am thrilled we had it! Upon arriving my room was not available (as I did not request early check in), front desk was not able to help; however when I asked to speak with Trisha the Catering & Conference Services Manager; she worked her magic and I was able to begin working in my room within the hour. The entire Catering & Conference Services staff from preplanning to serving was A+. Trish was always available to answer my questions and worked diligently to alleviate any issues or concerns I had. Once the conference began we were surrounded by staff that was polite and always available without being in the way. The food was PERFECT (I am still hearing praises about it) and the AV staff was helpful - even with a last minute change. We had a social event in the front bar and the manager was extremely helpful in arranging for a portion of the space to be ours alone. In addition to amazing services, the cost enabled our non-profit association to stay in the GREEN! Our annual conference moves from east to west each year, we will be sure the Tropicana is our place to meet when in the west!

I almost accidentally came upon the Tropicana Las Vegas as an option for my conference 3 years ago. From my initial contact with the conference coordinator and her team, I was sold. 3 years later, I continue to return to the Tropicana as the place to hold my annual convention. I don't plan on leaving anytime soon!

The facilities are first class. The location is awesome. The food for the conference is great! What sets this property apart from other venues is the people at the Tropicana.There may be multiple conferences they have to attend to, but they always make our group feel like we are the only ones in the hotel.

It was a long walk to the tower where my room was. I had numerous issues with my key card and not being able to open the door to the room easily. My tub was clogged with hair but I cleaned it out myself. Best pool/area on the strip though!

About Robert Irvine
With more than 25 years in the culinary profession, Chef Robert Irvine has cooked his way
through Europe, the Far East, the Caribbean and the Americas, in hotels and on the high seas. As the host of one of the Food Network’s highest rated shows, Restaurant: Impossible, Irvine saves struggling restaurants across America by assessing and overhauling the restaurant’s weakest spots. Irvine was previously the host of Food Network’s Dinner: Impossible and Worst Cooks in America, has authored two cookbooks, Mission: Cook! and Impossible to Easy, and one healthy living book, Fit Fuel: A Chef’s Guide to Eating Well and Living Your Best Life. Irvine is currently on tour with his new, interactive live show Robert Irvine Live, and appears regularly as an expert guest on national morning and daytime talk shows. In 2015, Irvine launched Robert Irvine Foods, a company that features a nutritionally improved line of food products without compromising great taste. Irvine recently established the eponymously named non-profit organization, The Robert Irvine Foundation, in an effort to support military personnel and their families. Now in operation for a few years, the foundation continues to grow and assist those in
need. In recent years he was honored with two very distinguished recognitions for his
dedication to the armed services and our country’s heroes. He was first designated Honorary Chief Petty Officer by the U.S. Navy, and later that year awarded the Bob Hope Award for Excellence in Entertainment and Support of our Service Members – a distinguished Patriot Award bestowed upon him by the Congressional Medal of Honor Society. Continuing his support of the military, Irvine will soon become the first celebrity chef to open a restaurant, aptly named Chef Robert Irvine’s Fresh Kitchen, at the Pentagon in the summer of 2016.

ABOUT RICH LITTLE
Born in Ottawa, Canada, Little started his “career” at the age of 12 when he answered back to his teachers in their own voices. Little was working as a disc jockey and talk show host before parlaying his talents into the big time of television. Still in his early 20s, Little, who was discovered by singer Mel Torme, then with The Judy Garland Show, asked him to make a tape. Instead of the usual impressions, Little did voices nobody did, and was booked on the show. Appearances on many TV variety shows starring Ed Sullivan, Jackie Gleason, Glen Campbell and Dean \Martin followed, as well as on series such as Laugh-In, The John Davidson Summer Show and as a regular on The Julie Andrews Show. Little also had his own variety show in the 1970s and was the star of the television show KopyKats. Little was a guest host early on for The Tonight Show, hosting 12 times. He quickly became a household name sitting in one of the Hollywood Squares and went on to do The
Muppet Show. Named “Comedy Star of the Year” by the American Guild of Variety Artists, Little was the perpetrator of nine comedy albums and three HBO comedy specials, as well as the Emmy award-winning special Rich Little’s Christmas Carol. A master mimic of more than 200 voices, Little continues to impress with a touring schedule throughout the United States and Canada and is currently performing inside the Laugh Factory at New Tropicana Las Vegas, for an extended engagement of his show “Rich Little Live” and is also touring with his latest project, “Little by Little” a self-written, humorous show about his life, featuring more than 30 characters. A book of the same title (…People I’ve Known and Been) is due to be released in summer 2016.
ABOUT LAUGH FACTORY

Posted January 28, 2014
LAS VEGAS (January 28, 2014) — The New Tropicana resort in Las Vegas unveils the Sky Villa Suites, which offer an entirely new level of luxury accommodations for guests. Located on the 20th floor of the Paradise tower, the suites offer breathtaking views of the Las Vegas Strip with floor-to-ceiling windows in an elegant and glamorous atmosphere. The Sky Villa Suites are a key part of the resort’s approximate $200 million transformation that has touched every corner of the property including all 1,467 guestrooms, the casino floor and restaurants, and the Tropicana Theater.
“The New Tropicana resort in Las Vegas has undergone a complete transformation, both structurally and culturally, and we are excited to introduce our newest room product—the Sky Villa Suites,” said Alex Yemenidjian, CEO of The New Tropicana Las Vegas. “We continually strive to deliver the best for our guests and these suites offer a new choice in luxury accommodations in Las Vegas reminiscent of a penthouse in Miami.”
Designed by Alex Yemenidjian and Annie Gevorkian, the Sky Villa Suites were created with an emphasis on modern glamour. These Las Vegas luxury suites include custom furnishings with white lacquered panels and Honey Birdseye and Anigre Lacewood highlighted with gold leaf. To give the suite added beauty and warmth, custom Golden Spider Natural Marble and luxurious carpet is used throughout. Cove lighting creates a soothing ambiance throughout the room. To accentuate the space with bold colors, specially designed abstract artwork is exhibited in the rooms.
These Las Vegas suites feature an unparalleled master bedroom and bathroom with his-and-her walk-in closets and a stunning gold leaf headboard. The master bathroom has two walk-in steam showers with LED showerheads, private water closets, LED backlit mirrors, and a spacious whirlpool spa for two. The lavish whirlpool tub is wrapped in marble mosaic with a massage function, air jets with LED lights, a computer control panel, a TV and Kohler water filler from the ceiling. Each of these penthouse apartment-style suites also includes a wet bar, private spa/massage room and office.
The Sky Villa Suites utilize the latest audio-video technology anchored with state-of-the-art Creston Control Systems. The system provides guests with intuitive control including window covering position, light and temperature control, room service, music and TV control and touch-screen keypads. Guests can also enjoy Samsung HD LED televisions in rooms.
The New Tropicana Las Vegas also offers eight other suite types throughout the resort including the two-story Penthouse Loft suites, the chic Presidential Suite and Chairman Suite, and the Pool Villa Suites. Like the Sky Villa Suites, the six Pool Villa Suites that have recently been made available to the public offer elite travelers exceptional accommodations. With a strong emphasis on privacy and an atmosphere conducive to relaxing and socializing, the 760-square-foot suites blend pure natural elements with clean modern shapes. Comfortable, custom-built furniture incorporates the beauty and warmth of Anigre Lacewood while marble mosaic walls give the rooms a natural sheen, and sandstone tile accented by hand-knotted banana-wool area rugs combine to create a bright yet cozy atmosphere.
Each Pool Villa is a luxuriously appointed Las Vegas suite featuring a spacious bedroom and a large living room with a marble-top wet bar and sub-zero refrigerator. Other features include a private balcony with a 44-jet whirlpool spa, DynaStar LED lighting and cascading waterfall, and dining and lounge areas overlooking a private lawn and the Tropicana pool. The Pool Villa Suites also offer the Creston Control Systems and colorful custom artwork.
All of the suites in this Las Vegas resort on the Strip are available for booking. For Tropicana Las Vegas hotel reservations or for additional information, please visit www.TropLV.com or call 1-800-GO2-TROP.

New Tropicana Theatre
Posted February 21, 2013
NEW TROPICANA THEATER RELAUNCHES AS STATE-OF-THE-ART VENUE WITH SUPERIOR ACOUSTICS AND INTIMATE DESIGN
LAS VEGAS (February 21, 2013) – In the wake of a two-and-a-half-month transformation, the Tropicana Theater reopened this past Valentine’s Weekend unveiling a state-of-the-art venue. To celebrate the groundbreaking event, popular pop/rock band Chicago welcomed the first patrons to the new venue designed to create an intimate connection between audiences and the talents on its storied stage.
“Our goal was to design a theater-sized space that made it feel like watching a live show in the comfort of your own viewing room,” said Fred Harmon, chief marketing officer for The New Tropicana Las Vegas. “We also wanted to design the best-sounding room on the Strip where you can hear the clear separation of instruments in a large band as well as the clarity of a single, unaccompanied voice. Anyone who sees a show here can judge for themselves – and I’m confident they’ll agree.”
The transformation began in early December, with the goal of bringing an entirely new look and feel to the theater. The result is a modern yet classic design incorporating vibrant colors with all-new furniture and other materials to provide an engaging, comfortable environment. A tiered, bowl-shaped design ensures that every seat in the house has a clear view of the stage, with a floor plan encompassing 1,045 seats. To further differentiate the theater and provide a special experience to VIP customers, the front rows are comprised of nearly two dozen U-shaped booths and a dozen four-seat cocktail tables, a nostalgic throwback to classic Vegas cabaret-style seating with a very modern twist.
Having recently hosted Dancing with the Stars: Live in Las Vegas, and seeking to accommodate other shows with often elaborate lighting requirements, the theater now features all-new lighting equipment which includes a GrandMA2 console and rotating, color-mixable Vari*Lite VL2500 wash and spot lights. With discriminating touring acts and audiences in mind, the new Tropicana Theater has also been designed to offer a superb acoustic environment where guests in every seat can hear every detail. The consistent, well-equalized sound is anchored by a Yamaha M7Cl-48 sound console and d&b speaker system.
Well-positioned for the future, the Tropicana Theater remains rich with Las Vegas history. The space opened in 1973 as the Superstar Theatre and hosted such talents as Sammy Davis, Jr., Mitzi Gaynor, Jack Benny, Phyllis Diller, Lou Rawls, Ann-Margret, Pearl Bailey, Vikki Carr and The Osmonds. In 1975 it was rechristened the Tiffany Theatre as the new home for the hotel’s long-running Folies Bergere, subsequently welcoming diverse performers from Wayne Newton, Gladys Knight, Beck and Tenacious D to Rick Thomas and his white Bengal tigers and Dancing with the Stars.
